Yi Was Beyond Saving, and Big Sis Was Very Angry

This time, Kua and Yi stayed at Purple Jade Mountain for a bit longer. Usually, when they come to Purple Jade Mountain, they stay for a few days and then go back, since the two places are very close to each other.

But this time, they stayed here for the entire winter.

Yi's competitive nature remained unchanged. Whether it was competing with Old Round or vying for skill at the Mahjong, he always shouted that he would fight again if he was not convinced.

In the end, even the Little Fox who always beat him wouldn't play Mahjong with him anymore. "Playing that every day, isn't it boring?" he'd say.

You should know that one day in this Primordial World is equivalent to one year on Earth. A winter in this world, converted to Earth time, is nearly a hundred years.

Who hasn't gotten tired of playing Mahjong after nearly a century?

Yeah, only Yi isn't annoying.

But the Little Fox didn't want to let him win, especially not to see his smug face. So she simply stopped playing with him and went into seclusion.

To this, Wu Chu could only say, "There's no way to train him, no way to train him!" He figured if this continued, Yi would truly become the number one card-playing shaman of the Houtu Tribe.

However, with Old Round constantly pressing and rubbing him, this guy's cultivation level increased quite quickly.

This situation continued until the following spring, when Kua and Yi prepared to return to their tribe.

However, at this moment, Lady Houtu arrived.

Upon seeing her arrive, Wu Chu instantly teleported her to the Summit of the Sacred Tree.

As soon as Miss Houtu appeared, she saw Yi Mahjong in the pavilion, and the people playing with him were actually those Little Flower Fairies.

So Miss Houtu glared at Wu Chu and transmitted her voice, "I brought him here to help him get rid of this bad habit so you could properly discipline him. What happened to the discipline? Is this how you discipline him?"

Feeling completely innocent, Wu Chu said, "Sister, listen to me!"

"I won't listen!" Miss Houtu said angrily. "This winter, I've been urging everyone in the tribe to cultivate, uphold discipline, and crack down on those evil practices. I originally thought this was the place I needed to worry about the least, but I never expected..."

"Sister, I was wrong!"

"You're not wrong, I'm the one who's wrong!"

"..."

Hearing those words that sounded strangely familiar, Wu Chu felt something was off.

Despite her anger, the young lady didn't forget to enjoy the delicious food. However, Wu Chu felt a bit awkward. Although the young lady didn't scold him in front of everyone, but instead scolded Yi and Kua, Wu Chu felt that she was indirectly criticizing him.

"Was I not clear enough, or are you stupid? Didn't you know to stop him? He's young, and you're young too? He's already calling you 'uncle,' understand?"

Kua shrank his neck and nodded in agreement.

Yi also shrank his neck, feeling quite sorry for Kua. It was clearly his fault, but the chieftain sister only scolded Kua.

Just as she was thinking this, the young lady turned to him and said, "And you, Yi, you have disappointed me greatly. I thought you would be the hope of our tribe's younger generation, the best candidate to become the tribe's future leader, but now... If you don't get first place in this Hunting Tournament and the Divine Ability Tournament, don't come to Purple Jade Mountain again. It'll be useless if you come!"

"..."

Wu Chu was speechless, feeling that the young lady was practically pointing her finger at him and yelling at him.

But the Little Fox had already gone into seclusion, Little Moon Spirit was busy in the kitchen. The Little Flower Fairies, facing the angry Houtu, did not dare to easily challenge her aura.

Anyway, the girl was cursing Yi and Kua.

Unfortunately, they didn't know what the young lady had said to Wu Chu telepathically beforehand; otherwise, they would have understood how embarrassed Wu Chu must have felt upon hearing those words.

"Sister Leader, I haven't neglected my cultivation..."

"Shut up!" the young woman snapped angrily. "You still dare to argue? You haven't neglected your cultivation? Then what did I see when I came over? Was it because you were unlucky and happened to be caught playing once? Can you guarantee to me that you only played once today?"

"..."

Yi silently shut his mouth, his large eyes glancing furtively at Wu Chu, pleading for help.

Wu Chu turned his head away, implying: Don't look at me, I can't help you either! Good luck to you!

After being scolded by Houtu, Kua and Yi didn't even get to enjoy lunch before being sent back to their tribe by the young lady. In her words, "How dare you even eat?"

Wu Chu thought to himself: If you make her angry, even breathing is wrong, let alone eating? You're dreaming!

After Kua and Yi left, Wu Chu and Houtu Tu sat in the pavilion, unsure of what to say. The atmosphere was somewhat quiet, which made the Little Flower Fairies around them feel a little strange and uncomfortable. Then, one by one, they silently flew away.

Wu Chu coughed lightly, moved closer to the young woman, poured her a glass of wine, and secretly whispered to her, "Sis, don't get anxious or upset..."

"Don't say anything, I'm angry!"

Wu Chu silently took out a plate of steaming hot pan-fried buns from his Storage Bag and pushed it in front of her, indicating that she should turn her anger into appetite.

The young woman glared at him, then silently picked up a steamed bun and began to eat it in small bites.

Wu Chu poured her another cup of spirit wine and silently served her. Miss Houtu glared at him, then silently picked up her cup and took a sip.

Seeing this, Wu Chu smiled slightly, finding it quite amusing that the young lady got angry.

Wu Chujue rarely saw the young lady get angry before, which made Wu Chu feel that she was too polite to him, as if there was always an invisible barrier between them.

"Sister..."

"Snort!"

The young woman glanced at him and gave a soft snort.

"It's been so long, I've missed you!"

The young woman rolled her eyes at him and didn't say anything.

Wu Chu propped his head up and looked at her sideways. Seeing her hair fall down, he reached out to tuck it behind her ear. This gesture made the young lady tilt her head slightly, and Wu Chu stopped what he was doing, giving her an awkward smile.

The young woman tucked her black hair behind her ear and bent down to eat the pan-fried buns.

But a faint blush rose on her delicate earlobes and flawless face, making Wu Chu somewhat lost in thought.

Was she embarrassed? Or shy?

Wu Chu couldn't help but think to himself, and then his gaze became even more tender.

And so, the originally quiet atmosphere became somewhat different.

The atmosphere only changed when Hua Feier flew into the pavilion carrying the food that Little Moon Spirit had made for Miss Houtu.

"Sister, when is your tribe's Hunting Tournament? I'd like to take Little Moon Spirit and the others to watch it, what do you think?"

"Forget about Little Moon Spirit, as for you, I don't think you're any good!"

The young woman said this with a hint of sarcasm. In fact, besides enjoying the delicious food made by Little Moon Spirit, she had originally planned to invite Wu Chu to watch the competition.

"Sis, this preferential treatment of you is hurting me!"

The young woman gave a soft hum, a smile playing on her lips as she tackled the steak in front of her.
